Welcome Wagon Club to hold general meeting

Shrewsbury – The Welcome Wagon Club of Shrewsbury will kick off its upcoming 2008-2009 season with an Italian buff et at Vinny T's in Shrewsbury Monday Sept. 8 at 7 p.m. Members will have an evening to reconnect with old friends and make new ones. Highlights will be 50/50 and centerpiece drawings as well as a door prize. The service project for September is a glue stick and Pencil collection for school-age kids. Please bring those items to the event or contact the Welcome Wagon Club to donate.

Vinny T's is located on Route 9 in Shrewsbury. The cost of the buff et is $25 per person.

The Welcome Wagon Club recently reported that last year's charitable giving included contributions to SELCO's Share the Warmth program, Shrewsbury Public Library's Sunday Sponsorship program, St. Anne's Health and Human Services and Shrewsbury Youth and Family Services.
